DYK? Summer energy reliability begins well before the hottest days arrive.

Across Canada, natural gas utilities prepare for peak summer demand by investing in infrastructure, managing stored gas and coordinating with electricity providers to help deliver reliable energy when Canadians need it most.

What can Norway’s experience teach us about real-time electricity pricing?

In “Recent developments on real-time pricing in Norway,” Matthias Hofmann comments on an article by Ahmad Faruqui from Volume 13, Issue 3 by examining Norway’s high adoption of real-time pricing contracts and how recent electricity support schemes have affected household price signals.

He highlights the balance between affordability measures and efficient price signals — showing how policy design can influence consumption, load shifting and peak demand.

Happy National Hot Dog Day! 🌭

Whether it’s a backyard barbecue, a ballpark classic or a quick summer dinner, today is a reminder of the simple moments that bring people together. Natural gas helps make those moments possible by fuelling the grills, kitchens and businesses Canadians count on every day.

As temperatures rise across the country, so does demand for energy. Summer heat often drives electricity demand to its highest levels as air conditioners, businesses, hospitals, and public infrastructure draw more from the grid.

Natural gas is a key contributor to grid stability, supporting electricity generation when demand peaks and helping keep homes cool, businesses operating, and critical services running.

Canada’s energy system works best when different energy sources work together. Natural gas plays a foundational role in delivering the reliable energy Canadians depend on, especially during periods of extreme heat.

Natural gas quietly fuels the lives of millions of Canadians, but its role is often overlooked.
In her first podcast as Chair of the Canadian Gas Association, Michele Harradence, Enbridge's Executive Vice President and President, Gas Distribution and Storage, brings a national perspective to one of Canada's most important conversations: ensuring energy policy reflects how Canadians live, work and fuel their communities.
From heating two-thirds of Canadian homes to supporting manufacturing, agriculture, hospitals and schools, natural gas is foundational to Canada's economy. It's also a critical part of Canada's integrated energy system, providing reliable electricity during periods of peak demand and helping keep the lights on when Canadians need it most.
As Michele notes, Canadians are looking for energy that is affordable, reliable and secure. Meeting those expectations requires policies that recognize the role of natural gas alongside other energy sources and better coordinate affordability, reliability and emissions reduction. Ensuring we're not solving one challenge while creating another.
